Do You Have Frizz?
Broad Question
What kind of Frizz product remover remove frizz?Specific Question
Out of three frizz products, which one would reduce the height of frizz?Hypothesis
It is hypothesis that Aussie Gel frizz product will remove the most frizz.Graph of Hypothesis
Variables
Independent Variable: Kind of "frizz remover" product
Dependent Variable: Height of frizz on a subjects hair
Variables That Need To Be Controlled:
Shampoo, Conditioner, Time on Blow Drying, Same Person, Time of Washing, How Much Frizz Product, Same Hair Product, Water Temperature.Vocabulary List That Needs Explanation
General Plan
An experiment will be conducted to determine which anti-frizz product will control the hair better. The experiment will be run on the weekends. To start have two big 5 gallon buckets in the kitchen. A girl who has frizzy hair will be our subject. Conduct the experiment, first putting on gloves and washing her hair with a half dollar size coin. Then dry the hair till it is fully dry, next measure the frizzy hair with a Popsicle stick at the top of the head and take a picture with a camera of her face. Also take a ruler and measure the Popsicle stick to get the height. Next we will put a dime size drop of frizz product in the hair. The products that we will use are Aussie gel, Tresemme shine spray, and Garnier sleek & shine cream. The product then will show if it works on the hair or not.Potential Problems And Solutions

14. Blow dry hair till completely dry
15. Measure with Pop stick at the top of the head draw a line how high the frizz is
16. Take a picture of the head
17. Put in a dime size drop of Frizz product and rub it in, then wait 2 minutes for the product to set up.
18. Measure the height of the highest hair strand with Pop stick by putting it on the top of your head
19. Draw a line on the Pop stick using the sharpie at the height of the highest hair strand.
20. Measure height in cm with a ruler.
21. Take a picture of the head
22. Do this again with all three products using a new Popsicle stick each time

Results
An experiment was conducted to determine which hair product removed frizz best. Aussie Gel and TreSemme Spray had a result of 1.5 cm and Garnier Cream had a result of 2 cm.

Conclusion
Three trials were conducted to test which anti frizz product was more effective on frizzy curly hair. The three products were tested at different times on the same hair. The hair was washed and blow dried and the product spread through the hair. The amount of frizz was measured with popsicle sticks and followed up with a ruler. It was concluded that the Garnier Fructis Sleek & Shine Leave-In Conditioning Cream performed the best and the worst was Tresemme SMOOTH & SILKY NO FRIZZ SHINE SPRAY. The frizz with the first product measured was 2 cm and the frizz with the second product was 2.5 cm the third was 3.5 cm. This trial disprove our hypothesis.
Discussion
The experiment was to test which anti frizz hair product worked best on a subject’s curly hair. Garnier anti frizz worked best on curly hair. This was determined by washing, drying and measuring the subject’s hair. After the hair was measured, the anti frizz product was applied and measured again after 5 minutes. It was hypothesized that Aussie frizz gel would work the best. It was predicted that normal curly hair would have a friz height of 3 cm and after applying Aussie and waiting five minutes it would measure 0.5 cm. The actual data collected was the height of hair was 4 cm and after applying Aussie it was 2.5 cm.According to this experiment no trend could be found because only one trial was conducted. If the experiment was conducted multiple times a trend would be expected to show a pattern of garnier being the best. Problems during this experiment and design was deciding or not if we should use two people one with oily hair and one with dry. Another problem was not doing more than one trials. To improve this experiment we should have done more than one trials, improve our graph, by being more clearer, and our question, by making sure a random person understands it.
The information we used to conduct this experiment was what kind of frizz product are out there and how much they cost, using a computer to look them up. The experiment design and results can improve the information of someone learning about this question in the future by encouraging people to buy garnier which is the best project for frizzy hair. The experiment is very good for people because if they are shopping and are confused on which product to use people could look at our experiment and understand which one to buy. Women could use it when they go shopping knowing which product to buy. Now that this information is out people, in the future they can try this themselves understanding which products will work or not.

Abstract
Three trials were conducted to test which anti frizz product was more effective on frizzy, curly hair. The three products were tested at different times on the same hair. The hair was washed and blow dried and the product spread through the hair. The amount of frizz was measured with popsicle sticks and followed up with a ruler. It was concluded that the Garnier Fructis Sleek & Shine Leave-In Conditioning Cream performed the best and the worst was Tresemme SMOOTH & SILKY NO FRIZZ SHINE SPRAY. The frizz with the first product measured was 2 cm and the frizz with the second product was 2.5 cm the third was 3.5 cm. It had been hypothesized that Aussi gel was going to work the best as 0.5 cm but, got second to the bes with 2.5 cm. Then, Tresemme SMOOTH & SILKY NO FRIZZ SHINE SPRAY was going to work as second as 1 cm. but, actually lost with 3.5 cm. Also, we thought Garnier Fructis Sleek & Shine Leave-In Conditioning Cream was going to lose with 2 cm. but, actually won with 2 cm.
